Nobody was injured in the fire, which destroyed a barn on the property of Allenby Tree, a landscape and tree moving company, Sullivan said. There was an apartment above the barn but it was unoccupied at the time of the fire, he said.

Firefighters had to wait for NStar to cut power to the building so they could put out hot spots. By about 1 p.m. the fire was largely out and the barn was completely gutted.

The fire also damaged a truck on the property, Sullivan said.

The cause of the fire is under investigation, he said.

Route 28 in the area was opened again at about 2:30 p.m., according to a press release from Falmouth police.
